Just finished reading The Score Takes Care of Itself by Bill Walsh. What a refreshingly unique perspective on leadership from the former head coach of the SF 49ers. I share my biggest takeaways for leaders in Silicon Valley in my latest post sachinrekhi.com/bill-walsh-t…

I shared the Lyft company history timeline at our all hands today because it's amazing to remember the founders worked on zimride for *5 years* before launching Lyft and then 7 more years competing with Uber (imo the best first 6 years of startup execution ever) before IPO.

There is a new era of AI, ML coming in the sports ecosystem. The best thing about sports economy is it is raw and innovation is still maturing. So lot of opportunities to grow and scale and see many 🦄 🦄 The conversation needs to change to build a bigger ecosystem.

When I talk about #sports #investment, other VCs think e-sports, video games, gaming app and traditional sports. Sports have bigger use cases now. Our fund is investing in 15 of such.#AR/VR #materialsc #streaming #ticketing #WearableTech #smartvenue #drone #DataAnalytics #media

This isn’t just an aesthetic failing. A mediocre story can cost a startup tens of millions in valuation or even sales. Stronger stories lead to more generous valuations, quicker customer closes, better press, easier recruiting, & a treasure trove of intangible benefits. 7/13

Surprisingly, many solid founders struggle to tell the big story. As they grow, startups often lack the time to sit back and imagine the biggest potential end state for their company. They have a general sense about how to scale, but often don’t have a crisp narrative. 5/13

What are the biggest problems you've seen in token distribution models? eg founders have too many tokens, inflation too high (bad for price), not clearly defined, lack of tail emissions to ensure network security What else am I missing? What are the other variables?
